Cozy Blocker

About

Most distractions start the same way — a “quick check” that somehow turns into an hour of scrolling or something worse. CozyBlocker is a small, calm extension made to help you catch yourself before that happens.

It doesn’t try to scare you or control you. It just gives you a short pause — a moment to breathe and decide if this is really what you want to do. That small pause often makes a big difference.


ℹ️ What it does:
• Personal Blocklist — Add or remove sites anytime. There’s even a “hold to delete” feature so you don’t remove something by accident.

• Unlock Challenge — To open a blocked site, you type a few random words and wait for a short timer (you set how long — at least 60 seconds).

• Disable Barrier — Turning the blocker off also requires a small challenge: typing a phrase or entering a password you set.

• Auto Re-Enable — After some time (5–60 min), the blocker quietly turns itself back on. Just to make sure you don't forget about it.

• Safe Button — Every block screen includes a quick “Go back to safety” button, sending you to a page you choose in settings.

• Status Icon — The icon turns gray when the blocker is paused, so you always know what state it’s in.


🧠Philosophy:
CozyBlocker isn’t about punishment or guilt.
It’s about gentle awareness — giving you a small bit of space between impulse and action. You stay in control, but you get a moment to make that choice with intention.
No drama. Just a quiet helper in the background.
